In this elegiac story about age, family, memory and the origins of ideas, Dave Eggers introduces readers to Oisín Mahoney, a U.S. Army vet in his 70s who is asked to lead a group of young grand-nieces and grand-nephews on a walk through the hills of California's Central Coast. They don't know him and don't want to follow him, and Oisín would love to be anywhere else. But still they walk together, through golden grasses and amid live oaks and manzanitas, coyotes and rabbits, on their way to a discovery beyond any of their expectations.
